After reporting to the Adders' Nest in Gridania, First Serpent Lieutenant Fulke entrusts you with a task of dire importance. A thaumaturge from Ul'dah has been wreaking havoc in the Twelveswood, angering the elementals. Travel to Quarrymill, find this Ailith, and see her expelled from the forest.

The thaumaturge Ailith explains to you that it is not her intention to anger the forest. Rather, she is acting in the interests of the realm at large by investigating the mysterious glyphs being magically carved into trees by the Archon Urianger, and attempting to break their spell. She agrees to leave, but only if you deliver Urianger to her. Travel southwest of Quarrymill. There, find and seize the Archon.

  • Up to two players may accompany you.

You have defeated Urianger's familiar, and are immediately met afterwards by a Lalafell named Papalymo. He concedes that the Seventh Umbral Era prophesied by Urianger may well come to pass. But the future can be changed... After encouraging you to take up that task when the time comes, he leaves. Return to Quarrymill, and speak to Ailith of what has transpired.

After telling Ailith of the events concerning Urianger and Papalymo, she decides to compromise with The Order of the Twin Adder's demands. Though still refusing to leave the forest, she vows to no longer anger it. Return to the Adders' Nest and speak once more to First Serpent Lieutenant Fulke.

At the Adders' Nest, First Serpent Lieutenant Fulke informs you of the city-state's intention to erect an Irmin Hedge around the forest, in response to Elder Seedseer Kan-E-Senna's foreboding prophecies. Guards were dispatched to protect the conjurers for the duration of the associated rite, but they have requested immediate reinforcements after coming under attack. Head northwest of the city and see to it that conjurers are not harmed.

  • Up to two party members may accompany you.

You defeat a force of imperial soldiers, and find an enciphered letter concealed in the uniform of one of the corpses. The conjurers and their guard, however, are nowhere to be seen. Return to the Adders' Nest and report to First Serpent Lieutenant Fulke.

You learn that the slain imperial with the enciphered letter was not a Garlean at all, but an Ala Mhigan. Stranger still, the conjurers who communed with the elementals within its ink and fibers claim he served a noble purpose. Eager to discover the meaning of the enciphered message, First Serpent Lieutenant Fulke orders you to travel to an Ala Mhigan refugee settlement known as Little Ala Mhigo south of Camp Drybone, and deliver the letter to the leader there-a man named Radulf.

Radulf tells you that the soldier you killed was one of his own-a spy named Hagllo. Fortunately, he bears you no grudge, and is grateful that you delivered his fallen comrade's letter, and the valuable intelligence contained within. After deciphering the letter's contents, he informs you that Imperial Legatus Nael van Darnus has joined the Garlean forces on the western front, where new magitek devices have been deployed. Radulf entrusts you with the magitek device design document found concealed within the letter. Return to the Adders' Nest and speak once more with First Serpent Lieutenant Fulke.

  • Start NPC: Serpent Lieutenant Fulke.
  • Reward: 1890 EXP, 300 Serpent Seals
  • Repeatable: No
  • Required Level: 25 (Discipline of War or Magic)
  • Required Rank: Recruit

Journal Entries

At the Adder's Nest, First Serpent Lieutenant Fulke tells you of a ceremony about to be held commemorating the reformation of the Order of the Twin Adder. He goes on to say that Elder Seedseer and leader of the Order, Kan-E-Senna, will be speaking to the citizenry of Gridania. Hurry to the Mih Khetto's Amphitheatre to hear what promises to be a riveting speech.

After the conclusion of Kan-E-Seena's speech, you notice Papalymo in attendance at the ceremony. Strike up a conversation with him on current events.

You have learned that Papalymo and his colleagues, all scholars of the Divine Chronicles, played an integral role in bringing about the reformation of the Grand Companies in Eorzea. To decide what part you will play in future events, it is important that you learn more of the danger approaching the realm. To do so, travel to the Rootslake, east of Camp Tranquil.

You have slain a clay golem near the Rootslake. Could this creature have some connection to the menace that imperils Eorzea? Speak to Urianger to learn more.

Appetite for Destruction

  • Start NPC: Serpent Lieutenant Fulke
  • Reward: 1891 EXP, 300 Serpent Seals
  • Repeatable: No
  • Required Level: 25 (Discipline of War or Magic)
  • Required Rank: Recruit

Journal Entries

At the request of First Serpent Lieutenant Fulke, you have agreed to undertake yet another task for the Order of the Twin Adder. It seems that recent studies of Dalamud - the lesser moon which has taken on a foreboding reddish hue-have revealed some disturbing facts. Visit Stillglade Fane, and seek out Bowlord Lewin.

According to Bowlord Leqin, the whispers of the elementals have revealed that a great destructive force was sent into the skies some while ago, but by whom, and to what end, none can say. Suspecting the Empire, the Twin Adder has dispatched a man of the Gods' Quiver, Arthur, to infiltrate Ala Mhigo as a spy. Now he seeks a meeting to make his latest report. Travel to the appointed place-a clearing west of Nine Ivies-and render it secure by felling any beasts in the area.

Cid defeated the beasts that attacked Arthur, the spy of the Gods' Quiver. In the ensuing exchange, it becomes clear that Arthur has been traumatized by the atrocities he witnessed in Ala Mhigo. In his anger, he lays the blame at the feet of Cid and his Garlond Ironworks. Return to Stillglade Fane and speak to Cid once more.

It Kills With Fire (Gridania)

  • Start NPC: Serpent Lieutenant Fulke
  • Reward: 3040 EXP, 1000 (2000 with bonus) Serpent Seals. Requirement for "A Feast of Fools" and "Ifrit Bleeds, We Can Kill It!".
  • Repeatable: No
  • Required Level: 30 (Discipline of War or Magic)
  • Required Rank: Serpent Private Third Class

Journal Entries

First Serpent Lieutenant Fulke has assigned you the daunting task of vanquishing the primal Ifrit, a mission intended as an overture to establishing a three-nation alliance. You must first seek out an elderly Elezen man named Louisoix, who is said to hold the secret to defeating the Lord of the Inferno. Find him at the Apkallus Falls, and pay heed to his every word.

  • Only parties consisting of four Disciples of War or Magic of level 25 or higher will be allowed to battle the primal Ifrit.
  • All party members must have either completed on the the three "It Kills with Fire" quests or fulfilled the quest requirements for entering the battlefield.
  • Winning the battle with a party of four fully enlisted members of the Order of the Twin Adder will earn you greater rewards.

You have met and spoken with Louisoix at Apkallus Falls and learned that he presides over a fellowship called the Circle of Knowing. According to the wizened Elezen, the primals are draining the land of aether. They must be vanquished, lest the power of the crystals be exhausted and Eorzea reduced to a barren wasteland. For the first step, Louisoix requires that you put down the six mighty beasts identified below, and obtain the echo crystals they yield. More will be revealed once you have accomplished this task.

Eastern La Noscea:

  • Barometz, northwest of Camp Bloodshore (wind).
  • Slippery Sykes, southeast of Camp Bloodshore (water).

Western Thanalan:

  • The nest commander, northwest of Camp Horizon (earth).
  • Pyrausta, west of Camp Horizon (lightning).

The South Shroud:

  • Queen Bolete, southwest of Camp Tranquil (ice).
  • The jackanapes, southeast of Camp Tranquil (fire).

You have successfully obtained the six echo crystals, one for each of the elements. Make haste and report back to Louisoix at Apkallus Falls in Gridania.

Employing his magicks, Louisoix has merged the six echo crystals to create a harmonizing crystal, an object that grants the bearer entry into the Bowl of Embers, Ifrit's sanctuary. However, in order to summon forth the primal, you must first obtain the Inferno Flambeau. The sacred relic is said to be in the possession of the Amalj'aa Voidtongue Ahzabb Chah, who can be found within a cave situated south of Nophica's Wells in western Thanalan.

You have relieved Voidtongue Ahzabb Chah of the Inferno Flambeau. Make haste and report back to Louisoix at Apkallus Falls in Gridania.

You are now ready to confront Ifrit. Make whatever preparations you deem necessary, and then speak to Louisoix once more.

  • Only parties consisting of four Disciples of War or Magic of level 25 or higher will be permitted to battle the primal Ifrit.
  • All party members must have either completed one of the three "It Kills with Fire" quests or fulfilled the quest requirements for entering the battlefield.
  • Winning the battle with a party of four fully enlisted members of the Order of the Twin Adder will earn you greater rewards.
  • A waiting time applies between challenges, and you will not be permitted to return to the area immediately. (View the Timers tab located under Attributes in the Main Menu for more information.)

You have defeated Ifrit despite overwhelming odds. Your celebration is cut short, however, by the unexpected appearance of Legatus Nael van Darnus of the Vilth Imperial Legion. He proceeds to issue a grim warning concerning the coming of a crimson star which will purge the land of life. Make haste for Gridania and relay to Louisoix all that has transpired.

Upon returning to Gridania, you learn that your victory over Ifrit was only fleeting. To compound matters, the likelihood is high that the primal has absorbed the aether that spilled forth from the land, rendering him stronger even than before. With the aetherial gate leading to the Bowl of Embers permanently severed, Louisoix must search for other ways to deal with Ifrit. In the meantime, make your way to the Adders' Nest and report these developments to First Serpent Lieutenant Fulke.

Two Vans Are Better Than One

  • Start NPC: Serpent Lieutenant Fulke
  • Reward: 4971 EXP, 1000 Serpent Seals.
  • Repeatable: No
  • Required Level: 40 (Discipline of War or Magic)
  • Required Rank: Serpent Private Third Class

Journal Entries

At the Adders' Nest in Gridania, First Lieutenant Fulke tells you of a man who has come forth with new information concerning the Empire. Arthur, who befriended this man during his time as a spy in Ala Mhigo, has already set out to meet him, escorted by a unit of Yellow Serpents to meet him. Shortly after their departure, however, Kan-E-Senna herself heard foreboding whispers from the elementals indicating that Arthur and his party had met with danger. Travel to the Toro-Moy Battlewarrens to the southwest of Camp Nine Ivies, and learn what has come of them.

Upon arriving at the Toro-Moy Battlewarrens, you find Arthur, the Yellow Serpents, and the new informant all fallen. Still conscious, High Commander Quinquerol explains to you that they were taken unawares by a Garlean gas attack. You have been ordered to secure the surrounding area while he and the other Yellow Serpents recover. The High Commander provides you with a device he calls a mist emitter, and urges you to use it against any Garleans you encounter.

  • Up to two party members may accompany you.
  • Defend against certain Garlean attacks by using the mist emitter Quinquerol provided via the interaction menu.

You have successfully defeated all of the Garleans in the vicinity. Return to Arthur and his companions and see how they are faring.

You use the Echo to see into the past of Pfrymloef--the Ala Mhigan informant who lies dying. You learn he bore witness to a conversation between none other than Nael van Darnus and Gaius van Baelsar, Legati of the Empire's VII and XIV Legions. It seems that Garlemald is seeking to resurrect the magic known as Meteor in an attempt to obliterate all of Eorzea. To do so, they are now searching for Allagan tomestones--relics that will enable them to harness the ancient powers of Allag. Speak to the others around you to see if they know anything more.

High Commander Quinquerol has decided that a more thorough analysis of the new information you have acquired concerning the Empire and Meteor is necessary. He orders you to travel to the airship landing in Gridania, and report to Cid Garlond.

Shadow of the Raven

  • Start NPC: Serpent Lieutenant Fulke
  • Reward: 5340 EXP, 1500 Serpent Seals.
  • Repeatable: No
  • Required Level: 45 (Discipline of War or Magic)
  • Required Rank: Serpent Private Third Class

At the Adders' Nest, Serpent Lieutenant Fulke assigns you a mission of great import. The citizens of Gridania grow restless at the burgeoning Dalamud, compelling Elder Seedseer Kan-E-Senna to take action. She has sought the counsel of the elementals, who whispered to her a prophecy that, while cryptic, strongly suggests that disaster looms. Present yourself before the Elder Seedseer, who awaits you at Stillglade Fane, and do whatever she requires of you.

Elder Seedseer Kan-E-Senna shares with you her interpretation of the prophecy. It is believed that the VIIth Imperial Legion, led by Legatus Nael van Darnus, will come to the Twelveswood, bringing with it chaos and destruction. In order to forestall this eventuality, the Elder Seedseer has resolved to make another attempt at raising an Irmin Hedge, and has already received the consent of the elementals to conduct a large-scale ranging. She requires that you assist the Wood Wailers in their bid to rid the Twelveswood of imperial presence. Report to Swethyna, who commands the operation from the area south of Camp Crimson Bark.

  • Up to three party members may accompany you. (Recommended)

Even as you scramble to flee the greenwrath, you are set upon by a menacing Garlean war machine. You must overcome this deadly obstacle if you and the Wood Wailers are to make good of your escape.

  • Up to three party members may accompany you. (Recommended)

In for Garuda's Awakening (Gridania)

  • Start NPC: Louisoix - Gridania (6,2)
  • Reward: 6231 EXP, 2000 Serpent Seals. Requirement for "Taming the Tempest"
  • Repeatable: No
  • Required Level: 45 (Discipline of War or Magic)
  • Required Rank: Serpent Private Third Class

Journal Entries

Before the Apkallus Fall, Archon Louisoix of the Circle of Knowing has asked you to investigate the cause of the unnaturally strong winds buffeting the Gridanian hamlet of Quarrymill. He fears it may be the work of none other than Garuda, the savage primal whom the Ixal are wont to summon. Travel to Quarrymill in the South Shroud, and discover whence these fell winds blow.

  • Only parties consisting of four to eight Disciples of War or Magic of level 40 or higher will be permitted to battle the primal Garuda.
  • All party members must have either completed one of the three "In for Garuda Wakening" quests or fulfilled the quest requirements for entering the battlefield.
  • Winning the battle with a party composed of only of fully enlisted members of the Maelstrom will earn you greater rewards.
  • A waiting time applies between challenges, and you will not be permitted to return to the area immediately. (View the Timers tab located under Attributes in the Main Menu for more information.)

You discovered the source of the winds buffeting Quarrymill to be a being with the traits of both bird and man. Could this be the primal Garuda? Hasten back to Gridania and report all that you have seen to Louisoix.

Louisoix confirms that the being you witnessed assailing Quarrymill was indeed Garuda. He then constructs for you a vortex catcher from the vortex feathers you obtained at the scene. With it in your possession, he claims that you will be able to use a beastman aetheryte found in a cave in the northeastern part of Feathergorge to reach the Howling Eye. Having made the necessary preparations, sally forth and defeat Garuda.

You have achieved victory in battle over the wind primal Garuda. Tragically, however, the power of the crystals you wrested from her grasp was quickly claimed by Dalamud. Nael van Darnus, Legatus of the Empire's VIIth Legion, tells you that the more adventurers struggle against Garlemald, the more power shall find its way to the red moon of Allag. Return to Louisoix and tell him all that has transpired.

Louisoix contends that Nael van Darnus may be harboring ambitions that differ from those of the Empire at large. To learn what the White Raven could seek by channeling energy to Dalamud, the Archon desires to hear Master Cid Garlond's thoughts on the matter. He will arrange a meeting, and asks that you return to the Adders's Nest in Gridania to attend.

Back at the Adder's Nest, Cid Garlond tells you much of the man-made red moon, Dalamud. It is known to be drawing nearer and nearer Hydaelyn, on a course that will bring it crashing down upon Eorzea. There can be no doubt that the Empire is using some unknown means to control Dalamud's trajectory, and it is knowledge of that which Master Garlond now seeks. Before returning to his studies, Cid passes on word that Elder Seedseer Kan-E-Senna herself wishes to speak with you, and awaits your presence before Stillglade Fane.

You have met with Kan-E-Senna before Stillglade Fane at the Lotus Stand. Despite speaking to the great ones among the elementals and quelling some of the forest's greenwrath, she admits that near all hope of erecting the Irmin Hedge has been lost. She goes on to reveal that now, as the growing threat posed by the Empire is felt by Gridania, Limsa Lominsa and Ul'dah alike, the Eorzean Alliance of ten years past must be reforged. She asks for your aid in uniting the three nations, that they might strive for a single purpose. Your audience with the Elder Seedseer ended, return to the Adders' Nest and claim your reward for felling Garuda from Lieutenant Fulke.

Don't Hate the Messenger (Gridania)

  • Reward: 6231 EXP, 2000 Serpent Seals. Allows participation in any Caravan Escort, regardless of company.
  • Repeatable: No
  • Required Level: 45 (Discipline of War or Magic)
  • Required Rank: Serpent Private Third Class

The Adders' Nest has informed you of a new Garlean stronghold in Mor Dhona. The news is cause for great concern, as Gridania is already on the brink of collapse in the face of unrelenting assaults from the Empire along their shared border. It seems the Elder Seedseer has made yet another appeal to Limsa Lominsa and Ul'dah, asking them both to consider once more remaking the Eorzean Alliance. Travel to the Lotus Stand by way of the clearing before Stillglade Fane, and gain an audience with the Elder Seedseer.

You find Master Cid Garlond at the Lotus Stand. Perhaps he might have some information valuable to the fate of the Eorzean Alliance. Speak to him and find out.

Cid tells you that the imperial stronghold in Mor Dhona is called Castrum Novum. He goes on to say that it is the likely location of the Garleans' lunar transmitter - the device designed to control the red moon, Dalamud. Though more information is needed, he claims the united forces of the Eorzean Alliance will be necessary to obtain it. Speak to the Elder Seedseer, Kan-E-Senna, to hear what she proposes.

You have heard the proposal of Kan-E-Senna at the Lotus Stand. Should the forest nation fall, the Empire will no doubt set its wrath next upon Ul'dah and Limsa Lominsa, both of which stand alone. Acting as her emissary, the Elder Seedseer has asked you to visit Admiral Merlwyb and Flame General Raubahn, and convince the two leaders to pledge their nations to the Eorzean Alliance. Speak to Cid once more before you depart.

Cid has shared his thoughts with you once more at the Lotus Stand. The might of Garlemald is indeed such that Eorzea can only hope to oppose it with the three nations united. To set about bringing the leaders together under a common cause, first travel to the stateroom in Limsa Lominsa by way of the Admiral's Lift and attempt to convince Admiral Merlwyb of the necessity for action.

In the stateroom, Admiral Merlwyb admits that the requests made by the Elder Seedseer would place a great burden on Limsa Lominsa and her armada. After deliberation, she confides that she is unable to commit to the alliance without first knowing the intentions of Ul'dah. Though your words seem to have struck a chord with her, she will not yet act. To convince her further, next travel to the Fragrant Chamber in Ul'dah, by way of the Royal Promenade, and there speak with the Flame General concerning the alliance.

Speaking with Flame General Raubahn, you find that he also finds the requests made by Gridania too great a burden for Ul'dah to accept. After hearing your words, he expresses his need for a guarantee that the might of the allied nations will indeed be enough to oppose the Empire, and that all three nations will rule the alliance equally. You are also told that a messenger has arrived from the Adders' Nest. Speak to the officer without to learn more.

The messenger from the Adders' Nest arrived with new orders. You are to travel to the area southwest of Camp Brittlebark in Mor Dhona. You will learn more when you arrive.

You encounter Cid once again, to the southwest of Camp Brittlebark, where he informs you that the Garlond Ironworks succeeded in shooting down an imperial warship bound for Castrum Novum. He asks that you travel to the site of the wreckage, to the northwest, and search for any remains which might provide insight into the imperial stronghold or the lunar transmitter he believes it houses.

You obtain an imperial strongbox key after defeating a group of Garleans in the vicinity of the site where the imperial warship came down. Use it to open the nearby strongbox. Perhaps it will contain some information that may be of use.

You cross paths with one Gaius van Baelsar. Legatus of the XIVth Legion of Garlemald. He states that the destruction of Eorzea is little more than a means to eliminate the primals. But it would seem that Nael van Darnus, Legatus of the VIIth Legion, has sinister ambitions of his own. It is perhaps for this reason that van Baelsar makes no attempt to prevent you from taking the Castrum Novum schematics you discovered and returning to Cid. Find him in the southwest of Camp Brittlebark in Mor Dhona, and tell him all you have learned.

You have told Cid all that you heard from Gaius van Baelsar. He determines that the set of Garlean schematics you obtained are in fact related to the lunar transmitter. As he suspected, the transmitter has been constructed within the stronghold of Castrum Novum. He informs you that he will analyze the set of Garlean schematics in the hopes of discerning whatever useful information they might contain. Yet to conduct an assault on the stronghold and its transmitter, the united forces of the three-nation alliance will be absolutely essential. The council of leaders called by Kan-E-Senna cannot be ignored. Travel to the Lotus Stand in Gridania, by way of clearing before Stillglade Fane.

Upon arriving in Gridania, you encounter the Archons of the Circle of Knowing assembled in the clearing before Stillglade Fane. They, too, have come to attend the council called by Kan-E-Senna. Find and speak to Papalymo, who was the Archon instrumental in the forming of the Order of the Twin Adder.

The leaders of the three nations have reached an accord, and the Eorzean Alliance has been remade. Amidst the jubilation, however, word arrives that the lunar transmitter has become functional. Speak with Elder Seedseer Kan-E-Senna and Cid to learn what course of action is to be taken.

Elder Seedseer Kan-E-Senna and Cid have asked that you join the forces gathering to stage an assault on the Garlean stronghold of Castrum Novum. Speak to Serpent Marshal Brookstone to claim your reward and learn where the allied forces are stationed.

Arriving at Mor Dhona, you receive new orders from Flame Commander Jakys Ryder. With the Eorzean Alliance reforged, the three Grand Companies are making ready to launch a joint offensive against the Empire. Leading a small contingent, your mission is to infiltrate the imperial stronghold Castrum Novum, and destroy the lunar transmitter housed therein. Serpent Commander Vevina Yarborough will furnish you with additional information regarding your objective.

  • Only parties consisting of four to eight Disciples of War or Magic level 45 or above will be permitted to attempt this mission.

Serpent Commander Vevina Yarborough has briefed you regarding the finer points of the mission. Upon seeing your preparations, penetrate Castrum Novum's defenses and lay the lunar transmitter to waste.

  • Only parties consisting of four to eight Disciples of War or Magic level 45 or above will be permitted to attempt this mission.

Winning your way to the heart of Castrum Novum, you succeed in destroying the lunar transmitter, whereupon Legatus Nael van Darnus of the VIIth Legion emerges. Clearly agitated, the man speaks ominous words before fleeing the scene. From what little sense you can make of his ravings, the White Raven may yet possess the means to summon Dalamud to Eorzea. Deliver these grim tidings to Elder Seedseer Kan-E-Senna and Cid, who await at the Lotus Stand in Gridania.

At the Lotus Stand, the Elder Seedseer listens intently as you recount all that transpired at Castrum Novum. Your tale told, Kan-E-Senna pledges to spare no resources in the hunt for Nael van Darnus, and asks that you cooperate with Cid Garlond and Louisoix in any way they see fit. For your show of valor, a reward has been prepared, which can be collected from Serpent Marshal Brookstone.

At the Adders' Nest, Serpent Lieutenant Fulke informs you that the Eorzean Alliance has successfully tracked down Nael van Darnus. An emergency council will convene at the Lotus Stand in Gridania to deliberate a course of action. You have been ordered to join Elder Seedseer Kan-E-Senna for the proceedings.

At the Lotus Stand, you learn that Nael van Darnus has fled southeast of Camp Glory in Coerthas, to a place where the Allagan civilization once flourished. The Elder Seedseer bids you go to the area in question, whereupon you are to confirm the white Raven's presence and survey the surroundings.

  • Only parties consisting of four to eight Disciples of War or Magic with a level of 45 or above will be permitted to attempt this mission.

Upon arriving at your destination, southeast of Camp Glory, your eyes are met with a disquieting spectacle: an intense beam of light is being sent skywards to Dalamud from a floating mass of land. As if in answer, the red moon spews forth endless cascades of fiery boulders. You are past certain that Nael van Darnus is responsible for this ominous phenomenon. Deliver these tidings to the Elder Seedseer, who awaits you at the Lotus Stand in Gridania.

Back at the Lotus Stand, the Elder Seedseer entrusts you with a mission of great import: you are to lead an assault on the floating isle and slay Nael van Darnus. Cid Garlond should be able to assist you in landing a contingent there.

Cid reveals that it was the tragedy at Bozja Citadel which opened his eyes to the evil of the Empire, and persuaded him to forsake his homeland. Holding himself accountable for the threat that Meteor now poses to Eorzea, he means to do all in his power to foil Nael van Darnus's deranged ambitions. Cid offers to transport you and your comrades to the floating isle by way of his personal airship, the Enterprise. Make ready then meet him at the airship landing in Gridania.

  • Only parties consisting of four to eight Disciples of War or Magic with a level of 45 or above will be permitted to attempt this mission.

Speaking with Cid at the airship landing, you reaffirm your resolve to bring down the White Raven. Finalize your preparations, and then speak with Serpent Private Hodder to board the Enterprise.

  • A waiting time applies between attempts, and you will not be permitted to return to the area immediately. (View the Timers tab located under Attributes in the main menu for more information.)

Following an epic struggle, you and your comrades merge triumphant over Nael van Darnus. Although the White Raven is forever grounded, you cannot suppress a sense of dread that disaster still looms. Perhaps Cid will be able to lay your doubts to rest...

Cid reassures you that the Seventh Umbral Era has been averted. With Nael van Darnus dead and the floating isle collapsed, Dalamud can no longer descend. The Elder Seedseer will be much relieved to hear these tidings. Make haste back to the Lotus Stand, where she awaits.

Living on a Prayer

Speaking with Louisoix at Apkallus Falls, you are shocked to learn that, in spite of Nael van Darnus's demise, Dalamud remains on its collision course with Eorzea. In order to prevent the Seventh Umbral Era from coming to pass, the Archon bids you embark on a pilgrimage to rouse the Twelve from their slumber. Divine symbols-temporal representations of the gods graven in stone-lie scattered across the land.

At Owl's Nest, you gain an audience with Ser Yuhelmeric, who proves to be a man of little faith and less trusting when it comes to aid sent from the Order of the Twin Adder. To prove your loyalty and win his trust, you must venture into Dzemael Darkhold, which lies to the south of Camp Dragonhead in the central highlands of Coerthas, and slay the Garleans occupying the captain's quarters within.

Ser Yuhelmeric explains that the draconian rosary is the mark of a heretic - a traitor to the See who has pledged himself to the dragons. It seems likely the Garlean you prized this from was once a citizen of Ishgard, whose treacheries drove him to guide bands of imperials across the nation's borders and into the Darkhold.

He asks that you travel to the Rootslake in the South Shroud and search for her, as she has gone off on her own without leave yet again.

Near the Rootslake, you are attacked by a beast of the forest, yet prove triumphant. Could Hilith have faced a similar foe and fared less well? Speak to the conjurer who appeared nearby and learn if she knows what has become of Dhemdaeg's vexing recruit.

The conjurer you found is Sister Challinie, who acts as medium to the Lancers' Guild. She informs you that Hilith's frequent absences have not been born of rebelliousness, but rather embarrassment at her own shortcomings. It would seem that she has been taking herself off into the forest to practice with her spear in private.
